9/11, just like the movies

Just Like the Movies is a short film by Michal Kosakowski that samples footage from movies that were made prior to September 2001 to recreate the events of 9/11. More info.

“It’s just like the movies!” was usually the first reaction of those watching the events of 9/11 in New York unfolding on their TV screens, no doubt recalling the endless number of catastrophes that Hollywood has proposed over the years. Now confronted with the reality of one such scenario โ€” of unprecedented destructive and symbolic resonance โ€” a feeling of deja vu arises while looking at these images.

Really well done. (thx, christopher)
